INTERVIEW OF DISHA (as written by me....i'v remembered as much as i
could)

(Interview of Chavi Mittal on 'galaxy of stars' who plays Disha on
Tumhari Disha)

She comes on wearing a black top, her hair in the usual manner as
she has it on the show, and with jeans and heels on. She was looking
pretty as always.

The interviewer tells her ''you like you laugh alot dont you''.
Chavi is smiling alot and laughs and says she cant help it its
compulsive and sometimes it becomes a minor problem onset. Shes
still laughing (this girl cant stop smiling and laughing...loll).
Chavi says that as soon as a serious scene finishes, she starts
bursting out laughing. The producer of Tumhari Disha then speaks on
another tape and she says that Chavi laughs too much but we still
love her on set. Chavi says that in one scene, she and DK and Sanya
are in a scene where Disha has to slap Sanya but she keeps laughing
and then everyone started laughing as Sanya looked at Disha and
couldnt keep her laughter in and DK burst out laughing and then the
director too. The director pleaded with Disha to keep it all in for
the scene and they redid the scene five times..and it was tough cus
the camera was on a crane! Chavi says that the character playing her
father makes her laugh alot too.
Chavi is from Delhi and she has a honours degree in English and a
background in music and singing and she started singing from age
10/11 and she used to do television shows where she sang stuff. But
the directors thought she was quite photogenic and should try
acting. She was on sa-re-ga-ma-pa and she won that show, then she
was on antakshri too but she came last. Chavi then sings a song and
guys..shes not bad! Chavi says she then put singing on a backseat
and went into anchoring shows and acting. She started out in Delhi,
where in some shows where she anchored her laughter took over the
show and everyone got alittle frustrated and went off for tea and
cigarettes and then came back. Chavi then moved to Mumbai and
applied for everything in television, any anchor shows, presenting,
any acting roles!..she was shortlisted for everything she applied
for. She had 3 or 4 serials in the bag and she says her boyfriend
helped her choose 'Tumhari Disha'.
She was chosen to do a telefilm. Then a close friend of Chavi's
called ''Mohit Hussein'' speaks and says that he first saw some
photos of her when he was auditioning for his telefilm and he chose
not to cast her. But then eventually she did get cast and they
became close friends. Chavi later reveals that he is her boyfriend.
Infact during the shooting of the telefilm in Goa and Delhi, he told
her he loves her and she soon felt the same way and she
said ''things started happening''. When Disha came to Mumbai she had
a choice from 3 or 4 serials but tumhari Disha was the only one
where she was the central character so Mohit told her to choose it
because it would be better for her popularity. Chavi says she likes
to keep busy! no matter what she is doing, whether its acting or
anchoring or something, but she likes to be independent. She
currently lives in Mumbai sharing a place with a friend. She is
asked if shes marrying her boyfriend and she says shes not thinking
about marriage as its too early.
She is asked what is the most romantic thing thats happened to her.
She says when her boyfriend proposed to her. She invited him for
dinner at her place and he started tying a thread to her finger and
telling her all these things like he loves her and stuff. Then the
thread was long and he slid a ring down it to her finger. Later he
told her that he copied the idea from a movie! I think she said No
to the proposal (though she never said that..i got the feeling)
Her b/f speaks again and says that he likes her because she is a
great person, shes nice and sweet and she looks traditional and yet
is modern. Chavi says that hes saying that because shes very
broadminded. Chavi's producer speaks and says she is a disiplined
lady because once she was very sick on the set (when she had to
break it off with Inder) and she pulled off the scene without a
hitch and later the producer found out she was sick and spent the
day after in bed (on her day off)..the producer thought she was
incredibly professional! The producer also says that she is follows
her job without making trouble like thinking a scene is stupid,
instead she just does as shes supposed to with minimal fuss. The
producer thinks she is a great actress for the show and has a bright
future! Chavi says that sometimes she does tell the director she
thinks a scene should be changed but mostly she ok and shes very
polite even when she does wants change. She says shes a friendly
person.
When asked if she cooks, she says she does but she doesnt really get
time and she cooks on her days off. But she says she loves to eat!!
She starts passionately talking about the food served on set during
evenings i.e. pau bauji, somasas..Chavi says she loves to eat. The
producer speaks and says that she loveesss to eat even when ppl
start telling her that she'll get too fat for the show. She said she
fed her boyfriend dal once.
She is asked if her parents know about her boyfriend, esp as theres
a religious clash. She says her parents dont actually know. She says
her mother knows alittle and she'l ease it to her dad. The
interviewer says that after this show is aired they will know so she
better tell them before that!! Chavi laughs (shes been doing this
throughout the show!). Chavi's boyfriend comes onscreen again and
says that he wouldnt say this to her face but she needs to work on
something that only she knows about. The interviewer ask Chavi what
he means. Chavi says that may be its her singing. Chavi says he
sings too but hes too wild. The interviewer asks her future plans
and she says she has none and takes things as they come!
